Outlook deleting mail from server when it's not supposed to

B

I have Outlook 2002 on my desktop computer and my laptop. I check several accounts with it, (the same accounts from both computers), and have the desktop computer set so that mail is not deleted from the server except when deleted from the "deleted" folder. This allows me to get the same e-mails on my laptop. Here's the problem: for whatever reason, mail deleted from my inbox into the deleted folder, but NOT deleted from the deleted folder is being deleted from the server. As long as the mail doesn't go to the deleted folder, it stays on the server, and I can also get it delivered to my laptop. Outlook on my laptop is set so that everything stays on the server, and those settings work fine. My hosting company suggested that I deleted and then re-create the accounts, and I did that, but the problem still occurs. I have all the current updates on both computers, and both are running WinXP Home
Help!
